Updated net-snmp packages that fix one bug are now available for Red HatEnterprise Linux 6.

The net-snmp packages provide various libraries and tools for the Simple NetworkManagement Protocol (SNMP), including an SNMP library, an extensible agent,tools for requesting or setting information from SNMP agents, tools forgenerating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command which usesSNMP, and a Tk/Perl Management Information Base (MIB) browser.

This update fixes the following bug:

* Prior to this update, there was a limit of 50 'exec' entries in the/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file. With more than 50 such entries in the configurationfile, the snmpd daemon returned the "Error: No further UCD-compatible entries"error message to the system log. With this update, this limit has been removedand there can now be any number of 'exec' entries in the snmpd configurationfile, thus preventing this bug. (BZ#836252)
